How Can I Help? D O N A T E F O O D: VOLUNTEER The Food Pantry goal is to provide food for hungry people in our community. The needs are continuing to increase. This pantry is run entirely by volunteers. With your help, we can feed more hungry people than we ever could on our own. Volunteering provides an opportunity for families, friends, co-workers and groups to work and spend time together while helping others. If you are interested in volunteering, email manager@grovecityfoodpantry.org. |

SPECIAL EVENTS During the year, there are special collections by various organizations. The collections then need sorted and moved to the Grove City Food Pantry and its storage facility. Help is always needed and appreciated on these dates! - The US Postal Collection collect food items in early May. - In December, all of the area schools collect canned goods in good natured competition. The members of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church then create baskets in this “White Christmas” event. The leftover food items then need sorted, inventoried and taken to storage. Your help would be very welcome! |
